Belgian League

This is one of the easiest European leagues to manage in Sega Football Club Champions. It is best for those who have managed at least three to four seasons in the game. It has mid-tier difficulty, but you will get a chance to manage some of the best youngsters from Europe.

Turkiye League

• Total Teams: 19

This league offers a higher budget and gives you a chance to earn more stardom. It also has 2 European Championship slots for the top 2 teams.

England FL

• Total Teams: 26

This league is for the experienced campaigners as it requires you to tap the best youngsters in the European circuit. With 2 slots in the English league, you can promote your team directly to the first division of English football, but surviving it is going to be a challenging affair. This league will test your investing and scouting abilities and overall elevate you to the level of veteran manager.

Nederlandse Comptetitie

• Total Teams: 18

This is also one of the best European leagues to gain experience as a manager in your initial seasons. Although it mostly comprises young talents, occasionally you may sign big stars if you are able to generate sufficient funds. The difficulty of this league is mid to high-tier, with a handful of competitive teams in the fray.

Liga Portuguesa

• Total Teams: 18

This is where the entry point of the leagues requiring veteran managers is. The clubs have huge funds and a combination of youth and experienced players. This league will not only test your on-field strategies but also off-field tactics. If you win here, you are destined to be elevated to the coaching position of legendary clubs.

Ligue De France

• Total Teams: 18

This is one of the top 5 leagues in SFCC. You can join and thrive in any of the clubs here only if you have the experience of managing top stars from Europe. Unless you choose a club from this league in season, you need to prove a lot to get a transfer call from this league.

Campionato Italiano

• Total Teams: 20

This league demands unmatched tactical acumen. You can thrive here only if you have the best footballing knowledge. The league is filled with very tough teams, and excelling in it requires you not only to use the current resources but also to scout and poach the best talent.

This league is the gateway to becoming an accomplished manager. Management will be easy if you get picked by a top club, but progression will be exponentially difficult if you get to manage a mid or low table team.

Deutsche League

• Total Teams: 18

This league operates similarly to the Italian League. It has 3 to 4 top teams which go as outright favourites to win due to better roster and higher funds. If you get a call to manage one of them, it's going to be easy; other than that, you will have to really put in all your managerial expertise to break into the top 3 spots in this league.

Liga Espana

• Total Teams: 20

Liga Espana is the second most difficult league to play in the Sega Football Club Champions. You need to be tactically and strategically versed to play in this league. This league is not only about managing players and funds but also managing team synergy and ego. If you try to pick any team outside Madrid or Catalonia, the journey will be all the more difficult.

English League

• Total Teams: 20

This is the pinnacle of all the leagues in Sega Football Club Champions. This league not only has the greatest difficulty but is also the most competitive out of all leagues. While you have huge funds to buy any player of your choice from any other league, the difficult part is managing them. You should only join this if you get offers from any of the big teams. However, if you do break out in any of the teams playing here, you can get a transfer of your choice to any of the smaller leagues.
